Recently, DEKUMA’s upgraded and optimized new RC480 automated rubber track production machine has been commissioned, and successfully exported to South Korea and arrived at the customer’s factory.

 

 

This customer is one of the largest auto parts manufacturers in South Korea, with production bases in many countries and regions, such as China, Europe, Southeast Asia and South Korea headquarters where DEKUMA’s rubber track machines are widely used.

DEKUMA has been cooperating with this customer for more than 10 years, and continuously improves equipment during the cooperation, and creating greater value to the customer.

Today, let’s see how DEKUMA’s rubber track production machines meet customer needs and keep improving.

 

 

Excellent performance of DEKUMA’s rubber track production machine

 

#01 

High degree of automation, reducing labor intensity and manpower requirements

In the past, the traditional production of rubber track required manual feeding, demolding and product retrieval. Generally, the production of a rubber track of several hundred kilograms required 3~4 people to work together.

 

 

After fully understanding the process of track production, DEKUMA has developed the automated rubber track machine, which can realize automated rubber sheet loading, automated demolding and automated reclaiming, and can realize the track tensioning process that cannot be done manually in the production process, so as to improve the quality of finished products.
With DEKUMA’s automated rubber track production machine, only one skilled worker can easily operate 4 machines at the same time, greatly reducing labor intensity and manpower requirements.

#02 

Overcome steel wires week links, and improve the service life of track

The traditional track production equipment lacks steel belt tensioning device, and the production of track has to adopt misplaced connection of steel wires, which left week links on the track.
DEKUMA’s automated rubber track production machine is equipped with automated tensioning device, and the tensioning force is constant throughout the process, which has changed the production standard of rubber track, so that the stress-bearing steel wire belts in track products can be made into a winding structure. It overcomes the weak links in the past and greatly improves the service life of the finished products.
#03 

Advanced non-dynamic clamping and vulcanization structure reduces energy consumption in production process

We have adopted the synchronous clamping technology by multiple sets of clamping oil cylinders, so as to achieve precise synchronization of multiple sets of oil cylinders as well as rapid clamping and pressurization.
After the clamping action is completed, the four cylinders clamp at the same time, so that the mold is evenly stressed and the molded rubber track has no thickness deviation.
During the vulcanization process, the hydraulic pump stops working, but the clamping pressure will not drop significantly, which can effectively reduce energy consumption and lower the production cost of track.

#04 

Highly intelligent operating system realizes simple operation

The highly customized B&R control system for the production of rubber track can be operated simply and easily, with accurate temperature control and faster response, and can save multiple formulas without the risk of loss.
Equipped with DEKUMA iSee4.0 intelligent management cloud platform, it can detect and control the main operating parameters of the equipment in the production process in real time, including energy consumption, temperature, pressure, clamping pressure, time and other key parameters, so as to realize the remote monitoring and maintenance of the operating status of the equipment.
The RC480 rubber track production machine delivered this time is mainly used to produce large rubber tracks. In order to further improve the production efficiency of our customers, we have provided the new equipment with a newly designed mold change carrier. 
The new mold change carrier is equipped with double-layer runners which can rotate on both the upper and lower layers. It can not only bear the track of heavier weight, but also allow the operator to adjust the position of track easily and improve the production efficiency.
Since 2013, DEKUMA has supplied a total of more than 200 sets of automated rubber track machines to more than 10 leading enterprises in rubber track production in China, also exported to South America, North America, Southeast Asia, South Korea, India and other countries and regions.
The cooperation with them is not a simple supply and demand relationship, but an in-depth cooperation. Dekuma will optimize the equipment synchronously based on the improvement of their track production process. Our technical team will visit their production sites every year to understand their first needs, so that our automated rubber track machine will continue to improve and maintain a leading position in the industry.
Even now that it is affected by the COVID-19 pandemic, we have dispatched after-sales service engineers to South Korea to assist customers in completing equipment installation and production commissioning.
If the after-sales are unable to go abroad, relying on the mature technology of Dekuma equipment, standardized packaging and convenient installation, customers can also successfully complete the installation and commissioning of rubber track production by themselves through complete and comprehensive manuals and our remote assistance.
Fast and responsible services, high-end and reliable equipment, all these are the key points to long-term cooperation between DEKUMA and its customers.
